Suspension lifted for Maldives judge after two years

Hassan Saeed, chief judge of the family court, was suspended by the judicial watchdog after he accused High Court Judges Abdulla Didi and Shujau Usman of being the “most corrupt judges in the world.”

The Judicial Services Commission’s director told local media on Wednesday that the oversight body has decided not to continue the investigation into the remarks. 

The civil court previously rejected Hassan Saeed’s request to lift his suspension pending the outcome of the investigation.
